Mr. Roboto
A sony by STYX. In the song, the singer talks about he's grateful robots 'do the jobs no body wants to' but in turn, hints about how they may take over and 'dehuminize' people and how things are done. Even said 'the problems plain to see/ too much technology/ machines to save out lives/ machines dehumaize' May also be as the singer is talking about how he is a bit like a robot and so is everyone. That he 'wears a mask' and by end the mask should be thrown away so 'everyone can see my true identity' May be used as nickname for someone robotic meaning they do menial jobs over and over and don't really complain or moan and are overused for it; may suck at other jobs. WIKIPEDIA SAYS: The song's chorus features the line, "Dōmo arigatō, Mr. Roboto", which has become a catch phrase. Dōmo arigatō is one of several Japanese phrases that translate to English as "thank you very much". The Japanese lyrics at the beginning of the song are as follows: どうもありがとうミスターロボット (Dōmo arigatō misutā Robotto) また会う日まで (Mata au hi made) どうもありがとうミスターロボット (Dōmo arigatō misutā Robotto) 秘密を知りたい (Himitsu wo shiritai) The lyrics translate into English as follows: Thank you very much, Mr. Roboto Until we meet again Thank you very much, Mr. Roboto I want to know your secret The song tells part of the fictitious story of Robert Orin Charles Kilroy (ROCK), in the rock opera Kilroy Was Here. The song is performed by Kilroy (as played by keyboardist Dennis DeYoung), a rock and roll performer who was placed in a futuristic prison for "rock and roll misfits" by the anti-rock-and-roll group the Majority for Musical Morality (MMM) and its founder Dr. Everett Righteous (played by guitarist James Young). The Roboto is a model robot which does menial jobs in the prison. Kilroy escapes the prison by overtaking a Roboto prison guard and hiding inside the emptied-out metal shell. When Jonathan Chance finally meets Kilroy, at the very end of the song, Kilroy says, Kilroy! I am Kilroy! ending the song. This song also represents the use of technology and robots in the 1980's. The robot-like catch phrase was created with a vocoder. The song heavily features the Oberheim OB-XA and PPG Wave synthesizers. Stan Winston designed the Roboto costume and mask, which is displayed prominently on the cover of Kilroy Was Here. The track was released as the first single from the album at the last minute instead of "Don't Let It End" at the request of A&M Records. The song appears several times in the Japanese drama "Densha Otoko" Barenaked Ladies used the line Domō Arigatō Mr. Roboto near the end of the song 'The King of Bedside Manor,' a track on their first album, Gordon

The thing is amazing. Also everything on the back is true!
Professor - I am loving this ....not all professors are blasted toward intellectualism. I believe smart comes in all different sizes, color, beauty, and personality. I will use this coffee cup proudly. Loving it in Denver. Jax
It was great! Very hard to break and easy to hold! Also very cute
I sent my friend the Wordle URL for her to enjoy. She did her first Wordle and got so excited, she sent me a text including the answer she got. This showed at the top of my screen and I read it - there was no way to un-read it so I was ... wordlefucked for the day!
Solid mug. Funny design. Fair price
My dad hits me with his mug. It's very very durable
I got the Capybara one made by FAUBCOK and it was so good quality!
i loved the mug, gave it to my grandmother on her birthday
The mug is great! I bought it as a gag gift for a friend, and I didn't really think it was going to be a good mug, but when I got it I was super surprised! It is really high quality feeling ceramic and the print is very clear and good looking. It was also packaged really well, and the shipping process was nice too! It did take longer than I thought to get here, but it's understandable as I did order it custom. In all it is an amazing mug and I think I'm gonna have to buy one for myself.
This mug is great! It comes in perfect condition and I love that you can change the definitions! I put my name and then I put the definition as ‘the best person’. Made my day every time I picked it up.
My name is Asher, I looked my name up a few days ago and we all had a good laugh. Now, this mug is my go to morning mug for drinking my herbal tea and plotting to take over the realms.
I just love it. Just like I ordered!
Exactly as promised.
To beginulate, the muglification of the vessel is both pleasing to the eye as well as the hand. Secondly, the option of choosing one's own colors adds to the lessening if the so called " buyer's remorse" which so often accompanies modern "on line" purchases.
My husband absolutely loves this! This was a difficult product to find but it turned out perfectly! He was cracking up. Definitely worth the buy.
I bought this mug for my daughter for Valentine’s Day. She saw the different descriptions of her name on your site, and read every one of them!! She then found a mug with everything written about her name on it. So, I am surprising her with it. The mug looks great. Quick delivery!
I live in a Hillbilly Condo & love my flamingo pink mug.
Annie from the customer service team helped me out tremendously with some adjustments that I wanted done after my order was placed. I really appreciate her willingness to go above and beyond for my request. The product was received exactly how I wanted it! One happy customer over here. Thanks!
I love the item I ordered but found the website a little difficult to navigate.
Now this has been my favourite mug by far. I put the word of scrunkly on it just as i had envisioned. Now to know why i picked a scrunkly mug, we need to go back all the way to the year of 2016. It was a day like no other, the birds were tweeting. We were all laughing while playing in the playground. Then came that fateful moment. A cackle was heard screeching throughout the lands. I turned my head in complete and utter fear. Two seagulls stood there. One was cackling while a red liquid dropped from its mouth. The head of the seagull next to it was missing. The seagull had consumed its friend's head! A betrayal, no... a parley even! To this day I still hear the words which left that evil beast's beak. It said, "Awww, the scrunkly". It then flew off into the sunset, leaving nothing but chaos and carnage behind. Anyways 10/10 for the mug. Would buy again.
